C.9.10 Move (MOVE)
When used in a Ladder Diagram, the MOVE block directly copies the value from a
source variable to a destination variable.
Select the tool (from the Miscellaneous Blocks toolbar) and click on a ladder
rung to insert the following block:
Once the block is inserted, you can double-click on it to configure it.
Functional Description
This block always passes the Enable input state (EN) through to the Enable Out
output state (ENO) without change; when EN becomes on, ENO is turned on, and
when EN becomes off, ENO is turned off.
When EN becomes on, the block function is executed: the current value in the
Source input (SRC) is moved (copied) to the Destination output (DST). No other
manipulation is performed on the value.
The block function is executed every time the ladder is scanned, so long as EN
remains on. If EN becomes off, then DST remains at its last calculated value until
EN becomes on and the block function is executed again.
